McKesson Corporation has announced the launch of Specialty and Infusion for Health Systems, a comprehensive solution designed to support health systems in starting, growing and building their specialty pharmacy and infusion programs.
Health system specialty and infusion programs enable patients to receive coordinated and comprehensive care without having to leave the health system. By providing patients with convenient access to the specialty drugs and infusion services they need, health systems can improve patient satisfaction, increase patient trust, and ultimately, achieve better patient outcomes.
Specialty pharmacy and infusion service lines have emerged as critical components of modern healthcare, driven by the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, the rising cost of specialty medications and the need for more personalized and efficient care. By modernizing and enhancing these service lines, health systems can maintain patient relationships and improve patient outcomes. Creating and optimizing specialty pharmacy and infusion programs can help meet the needs of patients presents complex administrative and operational challenges for health systems and hospitals.
Building upon McKesson’s Intrafusion success, the newly launched Specialty and Infusion for Health Systems solutions range from fully managed care models to consulting and advisory services, helping to ensure that health systems can meet modern consumer demands and are empowered to grow their specialty pharmacy and infusion service lines to improve health outcomes for the patients they serve.
“By launching Specialty and Infusion for Health Systems, we aim to support health systems in addressing their unique pain points and helping to improve their specialty pharmacy and infusion operations to deliver better patient care and outcomes,” says Scott Kemme, president of McKesson Health Systems. “We are proud to serve as a trusted partner for health systems, providing the tools, expertise and strategies needed to overcome the complexities of specialty pharmacy and infusion service operations.”
While there are shared pressures and overlapping opportunities between specialty pharmacy and infusion, McKesson recognizes that the complex nuances of each service line require a highly tailored approach. With this in mind, Specialty and Infusion for Health Systems consists of two distinct suites of services and solutions to aid hospitals and health systems in starting, growing and optimizing their specialty pharmacy program, infusion program, or both: Specialty Pharmacy Enablement and Infusion for Health Systems. These offerings provide comprehensive and customizable solutions to help hospitals and health systems start, grow, and enhance their specialty pharmacy and infusion programs.
